Question Time

CHILD PROTECTION

Mr MARSHALL (Norwood—Leader of the Opposition) (14:17): My question is to the Minister for Education and Child Development. Can the minister advise the house what action has been taken in relation to a northern suburbs out-of-school-hours care worker who is alleged to have behaved inappropriately with children and who has reportedly been stood down by the department?

The Hon. J.M. RANKINE (Wright—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Multicultural Affairs) (14:17): I can advise that, in relation to the circumstance the leader is referring to, the person has been dismissed from one position, stood down from another and then resigned.
